Since 2010, the Brain and Mental Health Art Show has been an annual event that brings together the scientific and mental health communities in Ottawa through art in support of a wonderful local charity. Last year, we raised over $10,000 for Centre 507.

SAVE THE DATE! The Art Show returns on May 3, 2025, at 6 pm at the Glebe Community Centre. 

This year, all proceeds raised through art auctions, raffle prizes, and drink and ticket sales will benefit the Youth Services Bureau. They are a non-profit organization in Ottawa that delivers a vast range of programs and services to support at‑risk youth and their families.

CALLING ALL ARTISTS! Submissions are open NOW and will remain open until March 31, 2025.

Contributing a piece of art to the Art Show is a great way to engage with your local community and showcase your talents! We accept all forms of physical art (e.g., paintings, photography, mixed media, ceramics, glasswork, crochet, etc.), and artists of any age and skill-level are welcome. 

To submit a piece of art for consideration, please fill out this form.
